[Cabra]

5 out of 10. My mistakes were largely due to thinking the non-Thai companies were Thai. 

[HolyCowCm]

6/10. But hard to tell what is and what is not now days. Like going to the US and saying is it still American or been sold down the river already.

[Marble-eye]

5/10.

[Faraday]

Five/10

 

[Chaimai]

I think everyone gets a free pass on that question, so you’re still the joint leader

[Bluesofa]

5/10
Never heard of the first one.
To me it seems a bit vague as to whether they originated in Thailand or if the company in Thailand is Thai?

A valid point, thank you Bluesofa. I've tweaked a couple of questions to remove any doubt.

Is it Thai-owned? --> Was the company founded in Thailand? / Is this company originally Thai?

I'm liking the controversy with this one, we haven't had this since the 'Elephants' quiz. Where are you @Marble-eye?   

[Saltire]

Another 5 out of 10. Never heard of the hotel group or the fashion designer.

 

 

[DwizzleyMatthews]

6/10

Lot of guessing going on

Tiger Beer and Sri Racha were the only ones I knew for certain and yet I still clicked on the wrong answer for Sri Racha

Score: 10

Kerry was absolutely everywhere when I was there in May and June

 

All over the country 

I never seen it before then saw their trucks every single day

[Marc26]

So my wife was adamant that KFC was a Thai restaurant  5555

 

Also she thought Johnson & Johnson was Thai as well. 

 

But KFC  she refused to believe wasn't Thai
